Just to be clear on that, I personally would prefer the SH in black (unassuming sleeper and stealthy), not really a big fan of red, that just asking for more attention from Cop's, but I got what I found as a good deal and it was red...

Yellow bikes never did it for me until a friend got a Ducati Superlight many years ago. It was yellow. I think maybe all Superlights were yellow??? Ever since then, I've really liked yellow. That probably wasn't apparent so I just wanted to clarify.

Back to the speed of colors. If you look at the wavelengths of color, RED is the fastest and nearest to invisible (infrared) light. Blue is slowest.....

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the forum is owned by InternetBrands Inc.

You learn something every day I guess.. I am a supermod in an R/C forum (R/C Tech Forums - Powered by vBulletin) owned by IB

For the sake of making this seem somewhat plausible, we can compare the frequency of the light (cycles per second - 1/s) to laps around the track, which we will also measure in cycles, or laps per second. Of course, in reality your lap time (assuming a nice, even 1:30 time) measured in Hz would work out to 0.011 Hz. There, I hope I have complicated it enough to look believable even though it is utter nonsense.
Code:
Color Frequency (THz) Relative Speed (%) Percent Faster Red 480 100 00.00 Orange 510 106.25 06.25 Yellow 530 110.42 10.42 Green 600 125.00 25.00 Cyan 620 129.17 29.17 Blue 680 141.67 41.67 Violet 790 164.58 64.58
As it turns out, red is the slowest color and violet is the fastest. I guess Ferrari makes up for their slow color by making otherwise awesome cars. Plus, when you have the slowest color and still win the race it makes it even more humiliating for your competition.
For laughs, if you compare a Near-Infrared bike to a Near-Ultraviolet bike, you find that the UV bike is 195% the Near-IR bike, which means it is nearly twice as fast around the frequency track.
Since, in terms of light, white is a combination of all colors, wouldn't that mean that a white bike would be the fastest? Or would it be the slowest? Or would you just be cheating? Either way it would still suck to keep clean.

I guess it wouldn't matter in these speeds who is faster, as time actually slowing down to infinite, thus said, we would't be able to come with results any time sooooooon............ 
to infinite!
to infinite!

Ever join a mainstream forum like ADVrider or a honda civic forum or something? Their full of 100,000 people posting nonsense and not really contributing to the community.
Here at SHF, small enough that there are the dozen or so frequent daily users, it's more of a community where everyone knows everyone. 90% of posts are someone you recognize, unless it's a new user. Then it's the same gang that's always helping the newbies.
These smaller forums have more of a sense of family, I can't stand the more mainstream forums with 100 new threads a day.

ADV is a good forum as well & I agree with what your saying about so many posts, but ADV ride reports are excellent.
Lastly, everyone knows RED is the fastest color

In trying to get this train back on the tracks... if it does, there is the Firestorm site, speedzilla has a Honda specific section that some here already post on and if anyone knows of another place, post it up. It could only help in the event that we lose this one. I've noticed for a while Greg's 996.net site is down.
